It has a special blend of colours: a bit of dove-grey, a bit of antique pink and a bit of a pearly one. The main parts are, intentionally, of a black colour in order to balance out the “lightness“of the frame. Cobalt blue: painted on the fork head, on the wheel nuts, on the Campagnolo crown and on the saddle sides.

Real vintage style!

As soon as the bike was completed I rode it on the road for a quick trial. It felt amazing, it felt quick, it ran smoothly on the road, it stopped and started effortlessly (which cannot really be said for many of the other bikes out there) and when it took speed it literally flew.

The bike has thick tires which make it ideal to ride over the asphalt, the river banks, the pebbled streets and so on… literally everywhere you can think of… just amazing, sensational!

Its raised handlebar, an original 70’s “3ttt”, is comfortable, very comfortable. I mounted the bare minimum to this bike: a Campagnolo brake, a BLB lever, a Spurcycle bell, neither more nor less.
